The Dictatorship of Mushitsta is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Imperium with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, zero percent divorce rate, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.209 billion Mushitstans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rombermos. The average income tax rate is 74.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Mushitstan economy, worth 707 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,821 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Victims of crime are viewed as less trustworthy than politicians, corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients, pro-wrestling bouts open with a legal disclaimer insisting that any violence is guaranteed 100% faked, and a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mushitsta's national animal is the cobra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Humanism.

Mushitsta is ranked 271,109^th in the world and 3,586^th in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -8.21 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
